My Favorite Healthy Recipes
June 2, 2010
Eating well is a huge factor in feeling good and living a long, healthy life! None of us eats perfectly every day, let alone for a lifetime. However, through our own continuing journey we have discovered that healthy eating can be simple, take some work, but does not have to rule your life.
My goal is to make cooking healthy feasible and fun for you. Our family doesn’t believe in fad diets or eliminating entire food groups completely. Our approach to food is very simple: eat more real, live food than dead, processed food. If you are new to “healthy eating” don’t try to cut everything out “cold turkey.” Just begin to add in one healthy food each day to what you are currently doing.
I welcome your thoughts, oil recipes, and ideas, so please leave them in the comments below and I would love to try it out and then share it with everyone if our family loves it!
Eating healthy is a whole lot more fun and feasible when you know others are doing it too. So let us know about your journey and what’s working for you!
Below are some recipes that I use in my kitchen often and ones that have become most popular with my readers. You’ll find smoothies, snacks, desserts, breakfast, and others. If you want full daily meals, meal plans, and to see more in-depth our food philosophy I’d recommend checking out my book. This list will be growing with time, so check back to this Recipe post often.
